Springfield businessman Michael Willhoit’s safari-themed home, the “African Queen," was featured in a recent story in the Wall Street Journal.

The article, titled "EBay Finds Unlikely Fans in Luxury-Home Sellers," was written by reporter Leigh Kamping-Carder and examines Willhoit's attempts to sell the 3,300-square-foot home for the “Buy It Now” price of $8.9 million.
